How much and when do you have to your personal injury lawyer fees?
Contingency Fees
Most personal injury attorneys work on contingency. That means you don’t pay hourly rates or expensive retainer fees for your lawyers’ services. Instead, those fees will be a percentage of your final settlement.
That’s what we mean by you don’t pay unless we win. Often, you don’t have to pay at all, instead those fees will be deducted before you collect your settlement at all.
This fee structure means many victims that wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford personal injury attorney services can now have access to the best representation available. It also creates another level of incentive for attorneys to win as they get no compensation if they lose.
The exact percentage of your settlement that goes toward these fees can vary depending on the details of your case, the attorney you hire, and whether the case is settled out of court or taken to a lawsuit.
Many victims that wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford personal injury attorney services can now have access to the best representation.
Other Fees to Consider
If your case goes to court, there are other fees you should be aware of. Lawsuits can get expensive. While you won’t every pay an attorney fee at Spivak & Sakellariou unless we win for you, there are other costs associated with taking your case to court.
Whether you win or not, you may be responsible for paying court fees, including:
- Court reporter fees
- Filing fees
- Medical records fees
- Police report fees
At Spivak & Sakellariou, we’ll ensure that you are well aware of all of the risks, costs, and potential benefits before you have to decide how far to go with your case. We treat every client relationship as a partnership dedicated to serving you, your rights, and your best interests.
